"There is a young woman I know who says her guide has total control of her right brain and soon will take over her whole brain and that at that time she will become her guide. She also says that she was Mary Magdalene during the days of Jesus, and that her twin brother was Jesus himself. She says that there is a special plan being devised for her and a select group of her friends including her brother, although the brother says he thinks she´s nuts...her words not mine. My question is, are there dangers in channeling? What precautions does a person need to take? Will a guide ever "take over" someone´s brain? How do we determine Truth in this type of situation? ~Deborah"

In the type of channeling we are doing here, not trance channeling, Guidance will never do anything against a person´s free will. That is and always will be the prime directive of Creation. At the highest levels of spiritual working we are never anything less than CO-WORKERS with other energies. Of course some of this depends on the level of commitment you make and the amount to which you surrender. Still if it does not sound reasonable, as the situation above describes, then it probably isn´t. Caveat emptor –let the buyer beware.

Unfortunately many people hear such stories and knowing so little about the true spiritual worlds, are afraid to step up and do something which is so natural and so easy and so necessary.

The secret to everything is intent. Always command for your Highest Guidance only to talk with you or someone approved by that Guidance. It is YOUR spiritual RESPONSIBILITY to understand what´s going on out there and not just accept the New Age lies foisted upon the so-willingly duped sheeple. If you care not for true spirituality then you won´t do your homework and you WILL get your lessons as the lady described above will get her lessons. I can´t tell you how many people I´ve worked on who have been in controlled situations for tens of thousands of lifetimes simply because they got stuck in some type of situation where THEY allowed something else to use their energies.

Get in touch with your intent. Make firm commands as to what you want to happen. Do your homework. Reach for the Highest. And then reside in that vibration and never let anything or anyone pull you from it, and you will be the driver of your own bus, no one else.

Fear shuts down all protection because it basically opens up big holes in our aura through which anything and everything can enter into our energy field to control manipulate or do whatever damage it likes. The best protection lies in having a strong intent to work from the Highest and then KNOWING who and WHAT you are connected to and living in that knowingness. I have faced down the worst things in Creation and ´survived´ simply because I knew what I was connected to and that it was Their power that I wielded, not my own, and that nothing was Higher and that They could deal with anything They sent me out to face.

Early on they told me, "Peter, you do the work, We´ll take care of the protection."

Fence-sitters, which so many of you are, get used by forces from either side. It is only when you get off the fence and say this is what I want, that your intent becomes strong and your future and mission begin to take shape.
In service, Peter

If you had done the prescribed homework of going back over postings there are also many lessons and articles out there to assist in this understanding:

Lesson #19 Self-protection
by Peter Farley www.4truthseekers.org

October 20 Dear Ones,

We are here to speak with you again this evening. We will speak about Tyranny.
There have been many wars on Earth all slated toward control and possessing of other countries, some of them in the name of religion.

In these wars, spirituality didn´t enter the picture. Those who were of a different mind were labeled witches, warlocks, ´evil´ persons, etc. Most of them were women and usually they were murdered. This punishment kept secret the abilities inherent in all people, and so these people only passed on their knowledge to selected family members.

Today this type of punishment does not take place openly. Hidden agendas are prevalent among darker energies. Often times those who start to awaken may be targeted - either for possession of the body or to shut down an individual to keep them asleep so they are unable to become knowledgeable It is imperative that one be protected before entering any type of spiritual work, meditation or channeling.

Use of the white/gold stream of Light/Energy from our Creator is one method....This stream of Light/Energy enters the crown chakra, comes down through the rest of the chakras and continues down through to the Earth´s core.
This Light/Energy may be expanded from the center core to whatever size is needed. e.g. expand to fill your body - to surround yourself, another person or group of people - to fill a room to remove dark energies - to surround your house/property - to surround your car when driving - to enclose the planet.

There are many uses of this Light/Energy. In time of need you can visualize this at a distance and activate someone else´s stream of Light/Energy even if they are unaware or do not believe in this source. You have seen this stream develop, two hands above your head, to envelope and transform a dark energy form from someone else.

Be innovative with this stream of Light/Energy. Those with inner vision will see this stream of Light/Energy at all times.

If you find this is not suitable for you or not strong enough due to very strong outside factors, then a bit of research will come up with another form of protection that may be of stronger energies.

Pay attention at all times as to your openness and degree of protection.
Continue to live in your heart and use this heart energy in all that you do. Your heart energy is the strongest energy available to you and is one of the fastest ways to increase your frequencies.

Dear One,

The nature of those websites [one´s on seeming New Age ideas about the light and other ´alien´ subjects] often serve as a portal for dark beings to possess or produce fear energy when they are opened into people´s houses. They open the web sites as a window to the place where these beings reside. It can be a place in space, on a ship, or somewhere in 4D, the darker realms. These beings will have their energy connected to that of the web site (or even e-mails from certain darker energy people), and then simply walk through it into the auric field of those who connect to the web site, even if only by looking, or hearing something from it.

They are able to come into the room, and as someone connects to them through thought, then they are also able to use that person as a link to this realm. Thinking about something is an easy way to bring it into your presence, and when you think about those entities, you are bringing them into your presence. They are smart and will stimulate you so as to pull them into your space. And they will sometimes be able to slide from you to other people [Watch the movie Fallen with Denzel Washington]. These web sites with negative energies are very dangerous, and much as anything else, carry a pattern that can be sensed [even before opening it], and should be avoided when it is
sensed as harmful...

Spiritual self defense

Dear worker for the Light,

There are many ways to open portals to conscious energy forms or to polluting energy patterns. Keeping a clean mind and aura is even more important than showering. If your soul becomes surrounded with pollution, so will the body take in the damage. Soul gives shape to body... Your body is a pillar, but what stands above and around it will determine how it is able to hold out instead of becoming damaged and collapsing.

Sensing will not be enough sometimes, and will let people take in patterns and become linked with energy they would not appreciate if they were fully aware of how it will affect them.

Guidance is essential as it will give, when properly summoned, the Highest information and lead to best results when followed with pure intent to serve... The pick up of invading energies, of other forms of controlling or limiting patterns can be avoided with far greater ease than it can be removed.

Television shows are a portal to those energies linked with what is displayed on the screen... So are movies, songs, books, objects, anything up to certain places will be impregnated with auras that may be of a contaminating nature.
The world exists on more than the 3rd dimensional level, and you all would do well to realize that what exists here, is even less than a small fraction of what is on the "upper levels".

If there is deception here, up there is more. If there is sickness, or there are bugs and viruses and people that will try to exploit you, so there are the same in the higher worlds too, and even more.

Ask where to go, where to look at, and how to do it so that you are led along the highest path to you. It is not easy and takes training, but it is the only choice to be taken if one desires to walk through and towards service to Creation with the true Light. Even with pure intent, accidents sometimes are bound to happen.

Realize that everything is connected to something else, and that some things are connected to darkness, or will cause it. Find out what that is, and then you will be aware of it, and it will be easier to avoid it or remove it find means to have it removed.

There are times when carelessness will bring about undesired visits and unfortunate connections. These may be the opening of a portal. When it opens and you feel it, it must be dealt with. Ask your Guidance how to do the clearing of the area you are dealing with (usually closer than anyone would like to have it). First thing to be done is to guarantee one´s own safety.
To protect yourself visualize and feel that you have a shielding "balloon" of golden color, unless you are guided to have it be colored differently. Have the balloon be surrounded with infinite space that will not allow any opposition to reach even the balloon, as if you have infinite space between your balloon and whatever you are about to deal with.

So you will have a golden sphere filled with golden Light surrounding you. Around this golden sphere there will be a second sphere composed of infinite space which will serve as a barrier against those who you are up against.
After you are protected, command that you are shown, by the highest Guidance, what you are dealing with, what it intends to do and how to deal with the situation properly.

Often there will be means to isolate the Being that invades your territory, but sometimes you will not be meant to remove it. When that happens, then command that this is then resolved and that it is in favor of Creation or the Higher Will. But have no fear, for you are protected as you COMMAND that you are. Have your energy linked to the highest and direct things with your thoughts or if that does not work, then speak out loud your intent to be protected.

When you feel that the invaders are about to cause harm to your environment, and you do not know how to act upon such a situation out of being nervous, then there are countermeasures which will help.

Make an envelope of infinite space around the subject, then fill it with Light—that will have it dealt with properly. Then have it sent out to the Highest that will take them to a place where they will be further taken care of.
Sometimes the Beings will resist being enveloped and isolated, then send golden Light that will weaken it and make it numb, so that it will be possible to remove it through the envelope tactic.

If you feel or are guided that the Being is too dangerous [and there are many of these for true spiritual workers], then you will have to open up a link for help to come. Make a portal for Guidance to send help, to heal the situation, and command that it is done immediately. Then there will be Angels of Light to help you, if it is the Will of Creation that it happens.

ALWAYS give thanks for the help you receive, thank yourself for dealing with what caused you trouble, and allow joy to fill you with the learning that you acquired and the release of all that would be of negative effect pertaining to the incident. Let only Love and Light and Sound coexist with you within your auric fields and thoughts, so that you have ultimate positivity in your life. Let the Highest take place with you in your life; it is the path of evolution, Creation taking you by the hand into the highest level of existence and awareness.

If there is a portal that has been opened, You can cut out its connection to the area by enveloping it with infinity, and then directing the enveloped area to be taken care of by Guidance.

The removal of the portal may be useless if you let it reopen by doing again what brought it to come previously.

If the portal is a connection to you, then you may simply command that the link is removed and see it being detached in your inner vision. Always ask Guidance whether it is to be done or not, and how to do it. The removal of connections is similar to cutting a thread that links someone to someone else or to a certain object.

You will be further led to understand the workings of such measures as you ask and connect with personal Guidance and learn about how stepping up and taking up the service put ahead of you will take you to more and more ways to be of service...

You are always included in Creation´s best Interest, as All are part of it. The difference between self will and the Highest Will is that self will is an attempt to control and limits the flow of Light, while Creation will expand and create more, with and through Light and Sound, with freedom instead of control.

P.S. The house thingy is easy. When you put protection around your house, take that golden Light or whatever you use and make it go underneath as well! Totally surround yourself, your house, your family, or whatever it is you seek to protect. The house and all its occupants should be in a bubble of protection with ´filters´ or Masters or the Hierarchy set up at each doorway like an airport screener to remove any unwanted visitors or entities from entering that may be attached to any of you.

Ask who of your friends, relatives or others are actually controllers or handlers placed in your life by the dark side to further shut you down or limit your effectiveness in doing your spiritual work here. Then deal with them as your Guidance sees fit. Experience has showed me women are willing to see ex-boyfriends and ex-hubbies as handlers and controllers but rarely if ever are they willing to see those who are more subtle in their ways of ´attaching´ or ´connecting´ to them, especially the meek and mild people who insinuate themselves into our lives—the predators disguising themselves as the prey.

The first thing all of you must do is accept responsibility for who and what you are in being connected to the Higher spiritual energies. It means you are
aircraft carriers instead of PT boats. If the darkside can draw on your energies or influence you to not do what you have to do then they have won a major victory as opposed to influencing Joe Blow on his spiritual journey? IS this understood or do We need to clarify something else for you?

For those of you with teenagers, station one of these ´screening devices´ at the bedroom doorway to your child´s room. See it as a cleaning station so that whatever your child picks up in browsing the net or through phone calls or whatever other negativity comes through them, does not then enter the rest of the household and bring with it ongoing dissention.
